congrats to both of u ladies...im soo happy for u guys im going to start a new thread this 1 is very long..so ladies update on that one. the title is the same but part 3.


SORRY HOW I STARTED THIS THREAD OVER..IM SO TIRED RIGHT NOW

[northernsunshine]

Congrats to you ladies....very happy for you....such great news! Wish you all well.

Baby dust to everyone else hoping for a positive test soon (as well as myself).

Also wondering (and sorry if this is gross) but does anyone else get a watery discharge with oder about a week before AF is due? (feel really stupid for asking this)

[faith2086]

well.we all ask weird questions on here..but too answer ur question yes i use to get that funny smell.the discharge is normal its just the smell throwing u off..but come to find out i had bv. bacteria vaginosis.. oh and its not a std at all. something caused from ur own body..like a chemical imbalance..go get it treated..if thats what u have.from what i have heard its very normal but mainly found in pregnant women...from what my dr told me... i hoped i helped

[northernsunshine]

Thank you faith for answering my embarrassing question.  I will talk to my doctor about it when i see him in a few weeks.  Any idea why the watery discharge happens only about a week before AF? The chemical imbalance makes sense as i do have a chemical imbalace as i suffer from Panic attacks and am taking medication for that.

Thanks again for the help

I am not even counting myself in until they do my blood work tomorrow! For all I know it could be an evaporation line, I will definitely be getting tested. I am thrilled and keep looking for the line to make sure it is there. I will definitely keep everyone updated.

[faith2086]

i knw u are preggo..u defi. deserve it..i will be waiting too hear from u.

[faye83]

yeah CONGRATS TO NICKIEB85 AND TRYINFREEDOM! i hope you are both pregnant!!  Wow you are getting blood work tomorrow? lucky! i have to wait for 2 weeks dang it :-(

To northernsunshine: Well it depends on the color of the discharge and smell. I get yellowish discharge that smells like metal (thats cause I'm getting my af) but if its smells nasty then it might be BV.

[northernsunshine]

Hi faye,

The discharge is just watery, no color and it smells like semen but we haven't bed in over a week.  This happens every month in the last little while.  

[SliverCheer]

Good luck on your bloodwork! I'm sure you are! Its only an evap if it showed up after the time limit or if it was colorless or looked like a dent in the test strip. But a line is a line!!

I'm still waiting!! I had a dream last night that a doc told be that I was pregnant with a baby girl! boobs  a little sore this morning. probably my imagination since i'm only 3DPO!

Ladies do you think it is ok for me to use an ab lounge or do abdominal exercises while I'm in this 2ww?? I've cut out drinking and skateboarding just in case but I want to keep doing my stomach workout in case I'm not to keep toned. I'm just paranoid since we lost the last pregnancy that it somehow was my fault :(

[bioclock1]

what did I miss? Nickie and tryinforfreedom, you gals are preggo? I've only been out of chat for about 12 hours...how'd i miss it?? At any rate.....CONGRATS!!!

AF still a no-show for me but she's not late yet. I still feel like I"m going to start today. Have that tight achey back and the mild but consistent low af cramps. I"m actually surprised she didn't come yesterday. POAS at home yesterday afternoon.... were both negative.....(equate and FRER). Bbs still not sore.....

Anyone have a recommendation on OPKs for my next cycle? I was thinking of the Answer brand since they come with 20 and who knows when I ovulate (I don't think two tests would be enough!). Anybody have any experience with these brands?

[Princessa745]

To: tryingfreedom and nickie

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congatulations!!!! That is such awesome news!! keep us posted please!!!

bioclock1, hope she doesn't come!!!!

[nickieb85]

I have used answer brand test strips (20) all of the time. I don't trust anything else and I've ordered off of the internet before.  
Princessa745-I have been getting faint positives all week but I have a doc's appointment today so I will definitely let you know for sure later.

Im a book called Taking Charge of Your Fertility, the author explains what to look for when you are TTC.  clear watery, egg white, and most importantly stretchy (can stretch an inch when you seperate your index finger and thumb) all orderless are great signs that you are fertile and/or getting ready to ovulate. its always good to have sex each day you see it. a good thing with that is to check the position of your cervix. if its low, you are not fertil if its high, its a great time to have intercourse. creamy, crumbly or being dry are indications that you are not fertile. The book really helped me. It got me a BFP! good luck!

[nickieb85]

I have the same book! My cervix is high and mid soft and tightly closed. seems kinda short too.

[faith2086]

my af report.today is day 3 and i had a meduim flow day 2 and spotting day 3..in all so far i have not completed a pack of pads 14 in a pack.and i used most of them only because i change everytime i use the restroom. just to stay clean

[tiff219]

I went to the doctor today. They took blood to get my progestrone levels and I am not sure if they took an HCG test... But they also gave me 5 pills of provera to start my period... So we will see...

[faith2086]

thats exactly when it say i ovulate...but im not going to be trying any more im just going to continue having sex normally and if it has results then i would be happy.. but its hard to stay doing the same thing each month and just sitting around for the2ww.. i will still post up and let u guys know whats going on but im going to take it ez

[nickieb85]

NEG pregnancy urine test @ 20mL

[faith2086]

sorry nickie.but wait to go to the dr..

nickie we are in together for the cycle. i lost my other cycle buddy "faye"

well i am spotting brown blood today..but i will see what happens tomorrow

[northernsunshine]

I cannot stand the wait...this is killing me.  Still have to get through the weekend and Monday and maybe even Tuesday before actually testing.  I had a major dips on 7 & 8DPO from 97.8 to 97.5 and 97.2 and now it's gone back up to 97.7 for the past two days...really hope we hit the target.  By breasts have been tender since yesterday which is normal for me just before AF so i'm not sure what to think anymore.

[nickieb85]

I definitely am out until the fs tells me what to do! I hope that everything goes well with everything for all of you ttcing!

[bioclock1]

STILL no AF here. She's not officially late till Sunday and if I make it till then, I'll be surprised. I feel like AF is on her way. Feel almost as though I'm more sensitive/aware of AF symptoms this cycle. Like, my body is trying to start AF and just won't . VERY Fatigued (not like pregnancy i would imagine but just feel BLAH), backache and cramping. I just want to go home and watch movies/sleep.

[AngellaHas2]

Okay ladies, its a new month for me to try. So wish me luck. My Af stoped today. And I am going to start trying on the 29th and for about 7 days after that. I am going to try the ever day thing. But I heard it makes the sperm weak if you do it that way.

[northernsunshine]

I have also heard the same about having sex every day so we have been having intercourse  every other day.  But if we haven't concieved again this month we might try the evey day routine because at this point there's i can't see the harm in trying it that way.

[AngellaHas2]

Ur right, I did the every other day last month, and it didnt work. So this month it will be the every day thing.. and I am crossing my fingures.
